VAN NUYS - A routine trip to the Social Security office Monday turned into 30 minutes of shock, disbelief and irritation for Lapriss Gilbert, who was forced to leave the federal building by a guard who objected to her "lesbian.com" T-shirt.

As she headed for a line to pick up a Social Security card for her son, Gilbert was stopped by a guard who said her T-shirt, naming an educational and resource Web site for gay women, was offensive.

She said the guard, who works for a private company hired by the Department of Homeland Security, demanded that she leave the building or face arrest.

There are some people for whom the worst intoxicant is just a marginal amount of authority.

Don't they have Authoritarians Anonymous meetings anymore? Or was it all disbanded because people kept fighting over who should lead the meetings?

At least the higher ups are acknowledging this guy was an asshole, as compared to defending him...

Possibly something is wrong here that my favorite part of the article is the woman being named Lapriss.

...And this is what happened when men's only knowledge of lesbians is that ALL porn features 'em. So anything that mentions lesbians is automatically obscene. Awesome.
